Want to learn the guitar without it feeling like school?

I have been playing guitar for 15 years and studied private lessons with an instructor for 2 years. I have been teaching guitar on a regular basis for the past 3 years. Chords can be physically challenging for beginners so I like to work with single-note melodies early on so that the student isn't quickly discouraged. Learning chords becomes the medium-term goal.

I am always prepared to adjust my lesson plans based on the students progress and overall comfort z

Making Spanish Enjoyable - ?We can do this!?

I began self-instruction in Guitar in the late 1970?s, then graduated with a BA in Music. I then began instructing youth in music as well as forming youth bands and worship teams in various churches, etc. Growing up near New York City, I heard a lot of Spanish. I studied for three years in High School with poor instructors who showed little love for their jobs, or even for teaching youth. I spent my third year of college in Puerto Rico speaking and listening to fast Spanish every day. The day after graduation, I was hired by the Migrant Tutorial Program assisting as an ESL Instructor. I then s

Experienced in English/Reading, testing, & Spanish Language

I play guitar and bass guitar every day. I've taught many people their first steps on guitar, and I've helped other bass players improve their playing and learn advanced techniques, including different styles of slap bass, playing harmonics, and finger tapping. I'm a stickler for both the physical form of playing both instruments, as well as the widely accepted musical rudiments. I have a passion for language, composition, and communication. Over the past several years, I've developed easy-to-understand techniques for translating this passion into language skills for students. I enjoy connecti

Guitar Tutor

Castile,
NY14427

Elementary and High School Tutor

I have played the guitar for over 30 years and have given guitar lessons for about 20. I focus mainly on chords and "folk" guitar but I also do a variety of strums, picking, notes and tabs. I have been in our parish music group, playing at Sunday services for the same 30 years. Do you need help with basic school subjects? Do you want to improve in one area or several? Are you just not doing as well in school as you could? Do you need to learn some key skills and concepts in a relaxed atmosphere where you can move at your own pace?
Call me!!
I am an elementary and high school teacher

Guitar has always been a part of my life, I started playing when I was 5 years old as my parents were folk musicians.
